Hand embroidery is hugely popular ? there are over 500K posts on Instagram with the hashtag #handembroidery. Its influence can be seen across all design sectors from fashion to interiors with hand embroidered embellishments visible on clothes from the catwalk to the high street. Flowers are one of the most popular themes across all crafts and this title combines these two elements to create a compelling offering that will appeal to stitchers of all abilities. Modern hand embroiderer Kristen Gula will show readers how to create 200 flowers, leaves and foliage from a stitch library of less than 10 embroidery stitches. As well as the step tutorials for the flowers it will also include 10 contemporary sewing projects for home décor items and accessories that showcase the embroidery. The projects include a collar motif, pillow cover, table decoration and shoe embellishments. About the author Kristen Gula is a self-taught fibre artist specializing in hand embroidery. She set up her own company, Gulush Threads in 2013, which is home to her unique, custom hand embroidery wall art and jewellery. She is an instructor on Brit+Co's online learning platform. This is her first book.
